Short version:
- I propose that conflicting "values" for the same "key" are considered
invalid.
- Let's not optimize for invalid data.
- Given that, there's an open question on how to handle invalid data
when encountered
In general, I don't think it's possible to enforce correctness at the
format level. You still need application level checks - and that calls
into question what we gain by trying to do this on the format level.
Long version:
Let's look at this from a different angle.
There are roughly two possible "modes" for the format with regard to
possibly-conflicting data. Call them "permissive" and "restrictive".
The spec says:
"""
Keys within each scope should never be duplicated; all keys in the
format are unique. PSBTs containing duplicate keys are invalid. However
implementors will still need to handle events where keys are duplicated
when combining transactions with duplicated fields. In this event, the
software may choose whichever value it wishes.
"""
The last sentence of this paragraph sets the mode to permissive:
duplicate values are pretty much OK. If you see them, just pick one.
You seem to argue that Combiners, in particular simple ones that don't
understand field semantics, should merge _keys_ permissively, but
deduplicate _values_ restrictively.
IOW: if you receive two different values for the same key, just pick
whichever, but $deity forbid you include both!
This choice doesn't make sense to me.
What _would_ make sense is fully restrictive mode: receiving two
different values for the same key is a fatal condition with no recovery.
If you have a non-deterministic scheme, put a differentiator in the key.
Or all the data, for that matter.
(Incidentally, this puts key-aware and keyless Combiners on the same
footing. As long as all participants uphold the protocol, different
value =3D different key =3D different full record.)
Given that, it's nice to have the Combiner perform the task of detecting
this and failing. But not at all necessary. As the quoted paragraph
correctly notes, consumers *still need to handle* PSBTs with duplicate ke=
ys.
(In this context, your implied permissive/restrictive Combiner is
optimized for dealing with invalid data. That seems like a wrong
optimization.)
A reasonable point to decide is whether the handling at the consumer
should be permissive or restrictive. Personally I'm OK with either. I'd
go with the following change:
"""
In this event, the software MAY reject the transaction as invalid. If it
decides to accept it, it MUST choose the last value encountered.
"""
(deterministic way of choosing, instead of "whichever you like")
We could also drop the first part, explicitly allowing consumers to
pick, and simplifying the Combiner algorithm to `sort -u`.
Note that this sort of "picking" will probably be implicit. I'd expect
the consumer to look like this:
```
for key, value in parse(nextRecord()):
data[key] =3D value
```
Or we could drop the second part and switch MAY to MUST, for a fully
restrictive mode - which, funnily enough, still lets the Combiner work
as `sort -u`.
To see why, remember that distinct values for the same key are not
allowed in fully restrictive mode. If a Combiner encounters two
conflicting values F(1) and F(2), it should fail -- but if it doesn't,
it includes both and the same failure WILL happen on the fully
restrictive consumer.
This was (or is) my point of confusion re Combiners: the permissive key
+ restrictive value mode of operation doesn't seem to help subsequent
consumers in any way.
Now, for the fully restrictive consumer, the key-value model is indeed
advantageous (and this is the only scenario that I can imagine in which
it is advantageous), because you can catch key duplication on the parser
level.
But as it turns out, it's not enough. Consider the following records:
key(<PSBT_IN_REDEEM_SCRIPT> + abcde), value(<some redeem script>)
and:
key(<PSBT_IN_REDEEM_SCRIPT> + fghij), value(<some other redeem script>)
A purely syntactic Combiner simply can't handle this case. The
restrictive consumer needs to know whether the key is supposed to be
repeating or not.
We could fix this, e.g., by saying that repeating types must have high
bit set and non-repeating must not. We also don't have to, because the
worst failure here is that a consumer passes an invalid record to a
subsequent one and the failure happens one step later.
At this point it seems weird to be concerned about the "unique key"
correctness, which is a very small subset of possibly invalid inputs. As
a strict safety measure, I'd instead propose that a consumer MUST NOT
operate on inputs or outputs, unless it understand ALL included fields -
IOW, if you're signing a particular input, all fields in said input are
mandatory. This prevents a situation where a simple Signer processes an
input incorrectly based on incomplete set of fields, while still
allowing Signers with different capabilities within the same PSBT.
(The question here is whether to have either a flag or a reserved range
for "optional fields" that can be safely ignored by consumers that don't
understand them, but provide data for consumers who do.)

This is still confusing to me, and I would really like to get to the
same page on this particular thing, because a lot of the debate hinges
on it. I think I covered most of it above, but there are still pieces to
clarify.
As I understand it, the Combiner role (actually all the roles) is mostly
an algorithm, with the implication that it can be performed
independently by a separate agent, say a network node.
So there's two types of Combiners:
a) Combiner as a part of an intelligent consumer -- the usual scenario
is a Creator/Combiner/Finalizer/Extractor being one participant, and
Updater/Signers as other participants.
In this case, the discussion of "simple Combiners" is actually talking
about intelligent Combiners which don't understand new fields and must
correctly pass them on. I argue that this can safely be done without
loss of any important properties.
b) Combiner as a separate service, with no understanding of semantics.
Although parts of the debate seem to assume this scenario, I don't think
it's worth considering. Again, do you have an usecase in mind for it?
You also insist on enforcing a limited form of correctness on the
Combiner level, but that is not worth it IMHO, as discussed above.
Or am I missing something else?

This wouldn't concern me at all, honestly. If the user sends an already
signed PSBT to the same signer, IMHO it is OK to sign again; the
slowdown is a fault of the user/workflow. You could argue that signing
again is the valid response. Perhaps the Signer should even "consume"
its keys and not pass them on after producing a signature? That seems
like a sensible rule.

Yes. My argument is that "whole record uniqueness" isn't in fact an
important property, because you need application-level checks anyway.
Additionally, protobuf provides awareness of which fields are repeated
and which aren't, and implicitly implements the "pick last" resolution
strategy for duplicates.
The simplest possible protobuf-based Combiner will:
- assume all fields are repeating
- concatenate and parse
- deduplicate and reserialize.
More knowledgeable Combiner will intelligently handle non-repeating
fields, but still has to assume that unknown fields are repeating and
use the above algorithm.
For "pick last" strategy, a consumer can simply parse the message and
perform appropriate application-level checks.
For "hard-fail" strategy, it must parse all fields as repeating and
check that there's only one of those that are supposed to be unique.
This is admittedly more work, and yes, protobuf is not perfectly suited
for this task.
But:
One, this work must be done by hand anyway, if we go with a custom
hand-parsed format. There is a protobuf implementation for every
conceivable platform, we'll never have the same amount of BIP174 parsing
code.
(And if you're hand-writing a parser in order to avoid the dependency,
you can modify it to do the checks at parser level. Note that this is
not breaking the format! The modifed parser will consume well-formed
protobuf and reject that which is valid protobuf but invalid bip174 - a
correct behavior for a bip174 parser.)
Two, it is my opinion that this is worth it in order to have a standard,
well described, well studied and widely implemented format.
Aside: I ha that there is no advantage to a record-set based
custom format by itself, so IMHO the choice is between protobuf vs
a custom key-value format. Additionally, it's even possible to implement
a hand-parsable key-value format in terms of protobuf -- again, arguing
that "standardness" of protobuf is valuable in itself.
